The PDA is a kind of iterative detection algorithms. The most vital issue for improving the convergence property of PDA is how to deal with the soft symbol outliers in each iteration process, which are caused by modeling errors of the prior belief due to a fact that the law of large number does not work well when the large system limit is not satisfied. As the simplest way to mitigate the harmful impacts of outliers, adaptive belief scaling is proposed while stabilizing dynamics of random MIMO channels. Finally, we verify the validity of ASB regarding mitigation of the bit error rate (BER) floor level.","PeriodicalId":296208,"journal":{"name":"2017 51st Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116147606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One way to compensate for this is through digital signal processing. In this work, two architectures for compensation are compared. Both are designed for 60 GSa/s and 512 filter taps and implemented in the frequency domain using FFTs. It is shown that the high-speed requirements introduce constraints on possible architectural choices. Furthermore, the theoretical multiplication complexity estimates are not good predictors for the energy consumption. The results show that the implementation with 10% more multiplications per sample has half the power consumption and one third of the area consumption. The best architecture for this specification results in a power consumption of 3.12 W in a 65 nm technology, corresponding to an energy per complex filter tap of 0.10 mW/GHz.","PeriodicalId":296208,"journal":{"name":"2017 51st Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers","volume":"111 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114035449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These spikes could be the population of cells labeled with perfluorocarbon nanoemulsion tracer agents for 19F MRI detection, used for cell tracking applications. It is further assumed that samples in the k-space are acquired through a 3D radial sampling scheme. This scenario can happen when one is using a Zero Time of Echo (ZTE) sampling technique, in which the data acquisition is started immediately after radiofrequency (RF) excitation pulse. Due to the structure of 3D radial sampling, one may not be able to use conventional 3D Fourier transform in order to reconstruct the image, as the samples are not located on Cartesian grid. We directly write the Fourier transform in the spherical domain, and by computing Spherical Harmonic Transforms (SHT) along concentric spheres, we cast this problem as decomposition of spherical Bessel functions. By using an approximation of spherical Bessel function, we rewrite this problem as a variant of atomic norm minimization framework, which could be written as a convex semidefinite program (SDP), and can be solved by off-the-shelf solvers. Our approach shows a promising numerical performance. 1","PeriodicalId":296208,"journal":{"name":"2017 51st Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131287545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We focus on the practically relevant setting in which there is no channel state information (CSI) at Alice about either of the channels to Bob or Eve, except statistical information about the ISI channels (i.e., Alice only knows the effective number of ISI taps). The key contribution of this work is to show that even with no CSI at Alice, positive secure degrees of freedom (SDoF) are achievable by carefully exploiting a) the heterogeneity of the ISI links to Bob and Eve, and b) the relative number of antennas at all the three terminals. To this end, we propose a novel achievable scheme that carefully mixes information and artificial noise symbols in order to exploit ISI heterogeneity to achieve positive SDoF. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to explore the idea of exploiting ISI channel length heterogeneity to achieve positive SDoF for the MIMO wiretap channel with no CSI at the legitimate transmitter.","PeriodicalId":296208,"journal":{"name":"2017 51st Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers","volume":"179 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127000174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
